Subject: RE: Exchange and SAN
I can't get past the concept that if the SAN dies (ie FC card or Power
Supplies) then all teh servers you have attached to it are dead in the
water.
Sounds like a quasi mainframe to me.
I still prefer many eggs and many baskets and take the disk hit.

Just to add my 2 bits
We moved our Exchange 5.5 running on win2k from direct attached disk
raid 5 to a IBM ESS 2105 Shark, and we saw about 300 to 400% performance
increase.

Soun
iber to attach to the SAN
so it's much faster for Exchange."

I run 2 Exchange 2000 Enterprise servers on an HP EVA2 SAN.
Each server has a 65GB IS right now and a 2GB Public IS.
16,000+ mailboxes total. I have seen no issues since migrating from our
5.5 environment 1 month ago to 2000 and moving away from direct attached
SCSI disk environment

As long as you don't buy into the great white lie of SAN's, you're golden.
That lie is that there's no performance hit created by taking a single large
array and carving it into a bunch of LUNs - there's a physics
ee. It
will be interesting to see how quickly Exchange and iSCSI come along.

As long as you don't buy into the great white lie of SAN's, you're golden.
That lie is that there's no performance hit created by taking a single large
array and carving it into a bunch of LUNs - there's a physics issue there.
Other than that, its just a bunch of disks, just like the SCSI attached
I have run into this in a couple of situations. One where we had a cluster
communicating to a SAN and the other where we had a single member server
talking to a SAN. In both cases I have seen network communications problems
result in the IS shutting down because the SA can't talk to it. In the

We have an exchange 2k server with 800 users, roughly 71 gb private store
running on an HP MSA1000 and it works great. I would even venture to say
that it runs better than it did on the local drives.
